and uh it's a it's a song he wrote entitled grandeur

and uh payload if you'd like to come on up and introduce your work

this song is called granger and

at first it was a different song but the meaning was cringy so i changed it because it was about other stuff anyways um so i just decided to write about god and how

i guess the relationship i'm having with gaga at this moment and the relationship i want to have with my fellow brethren and sisters

and yeah so it's called grandeur

this evening i think we can handle this

in the next five minutes

we are going to learn uh

the the voice parts for this beautiful very short

very short hymn if you see this slide if you go next

this is the whole song and it repeats

so

what i would ask is if

just so we can sort of get the gist and it's one that i i suggest will likely be familiar to some of you um

so the whole thing yeah just just the whole

[Music]

beautiful so it is a short a short song and so what i'd like to ask is if uh the women with relatively higher voices the sopranos uh women with high voices if if you would sing along matt if you would play the uh soprano line just alone so so we're going to sing this and and i want i want us to sing along and to get this melody in our heads

well we'll just do one at a time

jesus [Music]

we've just sung a

a prayer

it's

it's what the robber the thief next to jesus said jesus remember me when you come into your kingdom

and i think that's a prayer we we think almost every day

is that jesus will remember us when he comes into his kingdom

and jesus is coming

that kingdom

is coming soon

and so our next song this evening is is one that

is one of hope

that we sing for the time when jesus does come

when he comes to set up

the kingdom his throne forever

christ the king is coming to set up his throne

songs

oh

[Music]

so we've reached our our second and last our penultimate song of the evening and it's praise number 250

it's called quiet my mind lord

and it's a truly it's it's a beautiful

beautiful beautiful hymn lyrically and and musically

and

the words part of the words are taken from hebrews

chapter 12.

hebrews 12 and verse 12 reads therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees and make straight paths for your feet so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed

and so the writer to the hebrews calls us challenges us to lift our drooping hands in our weak feeble knees

and yet there are times in our lives when when this is a tough calling

when we feel weak and

and helpless to raise up our hands and to strengthen our knees and so this this song is a prayer

to god that he will give us the strength that he will help us help to raise up our hands

that hang down and to strengthen our feeble knees

and so we're going to sing this

if you are reading out of

the praise of the lord hymnbook we're actually going to be singing it through twice and so the words are going to be projected up on the screen

in the correct order

and so

for our last second or last

song this evening i do ask that we

treat this as a prayer you know that we meditate on these words and and reflect on

on the meaning and the impact that a prayer like this has in our lives

so praise number 250

yes

[Music]

so

[Music]

and it's him number 406

abide with me

fast falls the eventide

the darkness deepens lord

in 406.
